Arizona basketball recruits Nico Mannion and Josh Green will represent the Wildcats in the 2019 McDonald’s All-American Game on March 27 in Atlanta.

Sean Miller’s 2019 recruiting class is currently ranked as the best in the nation with five total commits. Mannion, a 6-foot-3 point guard from Phoenix’s Pinnacle High School, is the top recruit in the state of Arizona and 14th overall in the country, according to 247 Sports’ composite.

Green, a 6-foot-6 Australian who attends IMG Academy in Florida, is the 11th-best player in the class by the composite measure.

Mannion and Green are good friends having played with the West Coast Elite 17U Under Armour All-America roster in 2018.

That duo joins forward Zeke Nnaji (Hopkins, Minn.), guard Terry Armstrong (Scottsdale, Ariz.) and center Christian Koloko (Chatsworth, Calif.) as members of Arizona’s recruiting class.

Here’s a look at the rest of the McDonald’s All-American rosters for 2019.
